During one of the many semesters I was in college, I fell into a crowd of musicians.
Without any musical talent to speak of, I guess I became an honorary member of all of the garage bands that were being formed out of this group.
They were all members of a nearly defunct musical fraternity that was desperate for membership.

My neighbor (Iâll call her Brenda for the sake of anonymity) is one of the best things that ever happened to me. She moved into my declining neighborhood and everything changed including my ability to grow good ole summer âmaters despite a lack of ample sun and a thumb that will only turn green if I spray paint it.

I thought for a long time about what the first thing I would mix in my new Kitchenaid mixer would be and this past weekend, I finally got to get mixing.
Iâve wanted a mixer for over a year. How anyone goes to a department store and doesnât drool over the arrangement of brightly colored mixers, I will never know. And finally, my time came.
